| Anybody know when the Farmington starts to produce fish again? I've been a few times since December and have no fish to show for. |

They're there. Places like Church Pool are most consistent (and busiest).

| I've heard that minnows work good but I can never seem to keep them alive when trout fishing. Any tips? |

Hi,
Yes! -> This is a very old ... old-timer's trick to keep minnows alive.
Add 2 caps of Hydrogen Peroxide to your minnow bucket water.
Hydrogen Peroxide is just water with an extra Oxygen molecule in it !
Have your bubbler running when you add it.
Best regards,
SeaDog1 |

Thank you Michael.I thought i had it.Guess not. As for keeping my minnows alive.I have a battery operated one for the road and a plug-in for home.A scoop of snow every day and dump some water out.Just don't leave the bait where it could freeze over night.I try to use them up but,if i have leftovers that's what i do.You could also freeze them alive as an alternative.But,nothing beats livies.
